Gene's next monthly chat is Tuesday Dec. 27 at noon. <strong>You may submit <a href="https://live.washingtonpost.com/chatological-humor-20161227.html">questions here</a></strong>.<br><br>
On one Tuesday each month, Gene is online to take your questions and abuse. He will chat about anything. Although this chat is sometimes updated between live shows, it is not and never will be a "blog," even though many persons keep making that mistake. One reason for the confusion is the Underpants Paradox: Blogs, like underpants, contain "threads," whereas this chat contains no "threads" but, like underpants, does sometimes get funky and inexcusable.

Ally and Michael Banks designed and built a three-story, six-bedroom home in Northwest Washington for their family of six. They each brought their own talents to the project: Ally owns Ally Banks Interiors and Michael is president of custom-home builder Banks Development Co. The couple joined forces with architect Ankie Barnes of Barnes Vanze to take the familiar brick Colonial style to the next level. Their home is featured in the luxury issue of The Washington Post Magazine, <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/magazine/a-colonial-home-marries-high-end-design-with-laid-back-style/2016/12/07/b1404fa2-9224-11e6-a6a3-d50061aa9fae_story.html?utm_term=.6a86b91b1697">check it out here.</a>

When the credits come up at the movies, the pages in a book run out, or the last commercial rolls over the end of a television episode, the story might be over. But the discussion is just getting started. Here at Act Four, we’ll get together every week to talk about the best (and worst) in pop culture. We’ll also try to sort out why the stories we love mean so much to us, and what they mean for the rest of the world, from fall TV to the return of Oscar season.
